Forecast doesn't look great today in Cleveland, but perhaps there is a window.  Looks like % chance of rain drops from 65%+ to the 20-30 range around game time.  Probably will be a miserable game if they do play, and since its a division opponent, perhaps more likely to reschedule than the Mariners game last week.  

Buttttt I won't argue with another Keuchel start in the rain against the opposing team's ace.  

Bieber is another pitcher that just isn't the same after the sticky ban.. hmmm

game postponed

So here’s one.

If this game gets rained out, so you still start Lambert on Wednesday or do you roll over to Cease?

Gas can Kuechel gets a day reprieve.

I choose secret option C - activate Giolito and have him start Wednesday.

Ugghhh....Beginning another week with no White Sox baseball.......

I'll take postponing a game until the pitching staff is healthier. Plus this might mean we won't have to pitch Lambert for another start. 

After the Bulls and Sox ugly losses yesterday and nothing to fill that void...what do I do with myself this evening???

Roll over to Cease and hope Giolito is good to go next turn through the rotation over Lambert.

Looking at this one on paper, I am thrilled to push this game out.

Worst april weather I can remember here. Looks like that garbage system that gave us hail and snow middle of last week (in mid fucking april) made it to the midwest.

We have a couple of more days to survive of this, and then we finally get to spring-ish weather.

Welp, this makes it seem like Giolito might still be a ways off.

I’m supposed to get half a foot of (wet) snow tonight.

Central New York. The stuff hitting Cleveland today heads up to us and starts pulling in moisture from the Atlantic like a nor’easter.
